Black Plague

Black Plague
The opening scene of what cemented one of the biggest plummets in Hollywood (Andrew Dice Clay) saw the death of Vince Neil, the lead singer of Motley Crue who played the lead singer of the fictional group; Black Plague. Who is going to solve this murder? Why, Ford Fairlane, “The Rock and Roll Detective”. Music was actually a fair part of this film, so if you saw this movie and liked it, could Black Plague receive your vote?




The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (1990)

Actors:
Vince Neil and a bunch of nobodies

Songs you might remember:
None

Why you should vote for them:
We could play the Motley Crue card here

Why you should not vote for them:
This was not a good film, and “Black Plague” was not really featured.

Billy Wayne

The final installment of the cute “Oh, God” movie trilogy where George Burns played God, also saw him play the Devil. Here, the Devil tricks Bobby Shelton (Ted Wass) who was a struggling songwriter to sell his soul in exchange for seven years of success. Now renamed, Billy Wayne, he does make it, though we know at what price! Now, what we can’t figure out is why he wanted it in the first place.




The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Oh God, You Devil! (1984)

Actor:
Ted Wass

Songs you might remember:
None

Why you should vote for him:
Well, we loved Wass in Soap.

Why you should not vote for him:
Did it really matter who “Good” George Burns and “Evil” George Burns were playing cards over?

Billy Parker

Billy Parker
Often we find ourselves amazed at how often musicians become great actors; and how often actors are awful at music. With that said, Madonna, Elvis and Bob Dylan proved that not all musicians could act, and in the case of Dylan, he thankfully only tried it once. In “Hearts of Fire”, he played Billy Parker, a reclusive mumbling singer that had to be a “stretch” for him as an actor. The film was actually so bad, Dylan himself wants nothing to do with it, but since this is the legendary Dylan, we had to put him on the ballot.




The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Hearts of Fire (1987)

Actor:
Bob Dylan

Songs you might remember:
None. And neither does he.

Why you should vote for him:
Well…this is Bob Dylan after all.

Why you should not vote for him:
This movie stunk.

Billy Mack

From the excellent ensemble British Romantic Comedy, Love Actually, Bill Nighy played the only character with no obvious link to the others; the aging Rock Star, Billy Mack. For our money, Mack was by far the funniest character in the film, and we delighted watching him wave off political correctness with a charm that totally allows him to get away with it. He records a cover of the Troggs, “Love is All Around” (changing the word Love to Christmas) which his manager believes could be a hit, and pushes it to become the number one song in the U.K. for Christmas week; which is actually a big deal there.


We don’t think we are spoiling anything by telling you it was successful (perhaps his offer to sing it naked if it happened helped), and Nighy won the BAFTA Supporting Actor Award for his portrayal. We did see him sing (though briefly) which at least gives us a sound bite, which should help his case for induction.



The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Love Actually (2003)

Actor:
Bill Nighy

Songs you might remember:
Christmas is All Around

Why you should vote for him:
With this All Star cast, stealing a good chunk of the movie says A LOT!

Why you should not vote for him:
By Billy Mack’s own admission, the song isn’t good; actually he calls it crap.
